Is your baby tripoding yet?

My ped said by his 6 month visit in 3 weeks he should be doing this. He can do it for a second but then topples overChat Icon

What exactly is the tripod? Not sure if Matteo even does that yet, he's 6 months....

Sits up on his own with his arms helping him stay up.

Anthony does it when he wants to. He'd rather stand so when we try to sit him down he arches his back and slides. But when he does want to sit, he's tripoding. Every baby is different though, I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Ohh, Matteo topples over too! I think all babies go at different paces. I'll see what his doctor says next week.

Ellie does it but not for long and she's more interested in standing. Ped didn't address at all yet. She asked about other things.

Yes, Ava is doing this, however, her stability from left to right is still weak.

I just tried to sit him up and put his arms down and it is hard for him to reach the floor. Maybe his arms are too shortChat Icon

That's what he does and it looks like he squashes his stomach.

Miranda didn't tripod or sit up until she reached the 6 month mark. It will happen. Every baby is different. There's not an exact age that they all do everything at. It can happen overnight too.

Michael can tripod... he just hates it! I can get him to sit there for a while with a toy, then he leans all the way forward and topples over.
